I have DLed free CPU core temp measurement tool Core Temp. It shows me that max. is about 70 °C (tj. max). If there is no workload I see temperatures between 25 and 35 °C approx. In workload I see temperatures around 65 °C. Maybe I saw 70 °C once. Should I change the cooler?

I have original one from AMD for this CPU so it is no problem. I left the previous one (during CPU switch) because it has bigger passive cooling part so I was thinking it must bring more cooler power.

Would try hwinfo64 for monitoring the temps.My fx 8350 cpu runs about 52 to 54 c under heavy loads and cpu tctl never goes over 50 c and thats on stock heatsink and fan.So as Black_zion said keep it under 61 c and u will be fine.

What will be the true full load ad stock be in TDP and what will be the total power of the processor be, Watt of the processor (like Pt = U x I )?

Now, what will be the best main board to install an AMD FX 8370 on?

Needs Pt, real 2x x16, USB3/-3.1, aso.

Edit again:

I toke another test and set the limit to 70 Celsius at the OCCT program and used HWX64.

It seems that HWMonitor isn't up to date.

I did it with more or less fans, with and with out the side panel nearly installed. I tried the Wrath cooler too, but I had the OCCT set to 61 Celsius, that's why I toke it out and replaced it with a 220 TDP or Watt CPU cooler.

All fans will function at full speed at the test.

Processor temperatures significations:

CPU, it is the one that tell's about the CPU temperature;

CPU Package, it is the one that tell's about the CPU Core temperatures.

OCCT tests are done over 30 minutes and the tests where::

CPU Linpack:

Settings: x64

Temperatures with all fans and side panel taken off:

CPU 60 C/139 F

CPU Package: 44 C/104 F

MB: 40 C/103 F

*

CPU Linpack:

Settings: x64 and Use All Logical Cores

Temperatures with side panel taken off and all the fans active:

CPU 60 C/139 F

CPU Package: 44 C/104 F

MB: 40 C/104 F

THERE IS MORE, BUT...

I\M DONE HERE! I WAS TYPING AND THE AMD CENTRAL LOGGED ME OUT AND THE TEXT IS GONE!

NEVER AGAIN I WILL ASSIST ON SITE LIKE THESE. OS AND PROGRAM PROGRAMMER HAVE SHORT CUTS THAT I NEVER USE AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, ALL THE TEXT IS GONE (MORE THAN 24 HOURS ONLY TYPING IN ONE YEAR). IT JUST HAPPENS WHILE TYPING. AND AMD LOG'S ME OUT AND THE TEXT IS GONE?....

YOU )*&%^%()(*+_)(&%%()*((+&%%!@#$%^&*()_++_)(*&^%$# AND SO ON!

I was typing what it all matters, with side panel on and fans and without, aso.

It really matters how and what you do with it all. Make sure that you have enough airflow, more intake than outtake and don't forget about the fan pressures.
